Friends & Enemies




I was running, as fast as I could go. Something...was chasing me, wanting me.... but why? I continued to run, all rationality lost among my panting. My body wasn't used to this kind of thing I thought, as I glanced behind me. Hoping that...thing, was long gone. I stopped running, seeing nothing behind me.
Silence throughout the graveyard, Tombstones surrounded me. I turned around just as the monster's claws sliced through me.

I woke up screaming, breathing hard and sweaty, what joy.
"Knock, Knock" My Mom trying to make sure I was awake for school, her sad attempt made me scream and I fell off the bed.
"Cara? Are you alright?" Asked Cinder Blood, aka Cara Blood's mother, Aka, My Mom.
She was alright as far as mom's go, Cinder barely looked 40, with her blood-red hair, and bright knowledge filled eyes that wasn't quite blue nor grey.
Me? Well, people always tell me I don't look like her at all,
With my dark black hair that's almost blue, my pale but not too pale skin,
and my electric blue eyes, of course I also tower over my mom at 5'8.
See my dilemma?

"Yes, I WAS perfectly fine until you woke me up!" I grumbled and muttered silently.
I heard her chuckle through the door,
"Sweetheart, that's my job, Making sure you get a good education is what I'm here for" Cinder called back as she made her way downstairs.

Sighing loudly, and stubbornly, which is the only trait I have from my mom.
Walking to the bathroom like an undead zombie, or is that the living dead? Still, that is pretty cool. Glancing in the mirror, I look like a ghost. Turning on the shower, I let the warmth from the water calm my nerves. After all, it was just a dream, right?
Shaking off that thought I get dressed in record time, grabbing my book bag and a pop tart. As well as giving my mom a kiss bye, just as a horn screams from the front.

Smiling inwardly, did I mention that I had 3 bestie's?
2 of them had been with me since kindergarten, Ember Brier and Kaline Axel, while the other one...was completely annoying 'course we loved him just the same.
He was Ash Cloven, he had shaggy blond hair that just made you wanna fix it for him, and ice blue eyes that seemed like he could, read your mind and he was really tanned, lots of yummy right there.
Ash was also 6'0 tallest of us all, while Kaline was the shortest though, she would never admit it.

All the girls craved to be Ember with her long caramel  brown hair, dark smoky eyes, and coffee colored skin, plus her long legs, coming to a total of 5'9.
While Kaline was 5'6 she was petite and cute, with her short blond bob, and bright green eyes and her sharp looks gave her the appeal of a forest fairy.

"Whoa! who IS that?" Gasped Ash at me, while I blushed.
Glancing down I realized I had on a short jean skirt that gave my legs the appeal of never ending, and my dark blue halter made my hair look bluer, almost magical and my skin looked paler...in a good way.

Ember widened her grey eyes at me,
"Whoa, Cara! we always knew you had a naughty side to you" Giggling as she said this.

Kaline smiled, showing straight white teeth, something people would kill for,
"Cara, I LOVE your hair like that, it's like it's flowing around you! Hey! Ash, close your mouth, your letting in flies" At that Ember flew into a fit of laughter as did everyone else, I even giggled, climbing into the backseat with Ash, as he put his arm around me and gave me a 100-kilowatt smile. Blushing bright tomato red, all the way to Reswood school.


As soon as I entered the doorway, Kids from all directions moved in packs around me. Kind of like wolves, at that thought I smiled.
After all, it takes one to know one, hehe, Cara, you are a funny one.
Someone poked me from my tumbling thoughts.
"Mhmm?" I mumbled,
Ember points at Ash and wiggles her eyebrows, giggling as she does this.
Rolling my eyes at her, I shake my head, shrugging Ember turns her attention to her boyfriend (Of course a girl like her would so have a boyfriend)
Alaric Steffer, hottest goth in the school, with his natural black hair and creamy pale skin, and brown eyes so dark they were black, and an expression screaming sorrow. Except when he was around her, like magnets pulling at each other.

Kaline currently is dating Bliss, they where probably the hottest couple right now, considering they're both bisexual and girls.
Then again, they where both Fairy. Kaline a forest fairy and Bliss a water Fairy.
Bliss is perky and petite, perfect for Kaline, with her shoulder length hair that sometimes went from dark blue to light blue (depending on her mood)
Plus her dark blue eyes seemed to always be shinning.

Alaric is a vampire, but there are different kinds, Some are natural meaning they can have little vampy offspring, or they can mix (unless the female is not natural born, resulting in no kids) and have vampy/human kids, like half & half. Though there very rare. Then there is the kind that's cursed, not made nor born. Alaric was cursed, best not to ask or else he'll go silent.

Ember is a witch, their different kinds as well, Light and dark.
Her source of power?
Her specialty is fire, when she's pissed her eyes will reflect a fire, and she can do different kind of things with fire. On her sixteenth birthday she has to choose between light and dark.
Ember is only 15, 2 more months until her birthday November 13.

Now it's my turn, I would have thought you figured it out by now, but I guess I have to tell you. I'm a werewolf, and it's not like red riding hood or anything. I like to think that my group of friends are my pack, I'm still waiting for my mate. Ash would never do and don't get me wrong, he' great but not really suitable for me. Every guy at school tries to ask me to the upcoming dance and I always turn them down. One other thing, my fur is black with a tinge of blue in it and my blue eyes turn even icier.
I hunt animals, I will NEVER hunt humans, its not my thing.

Ash, is human he hates it but he can see the future, not the best thing but still. It helps us find the nastie's in our old town, Crestworth. Nothing ever good happens to us, but it feels good helping the townspeople...of course they don't know it's us. Nor do they know what we are, we like to keep secrets. Stepping into my period 1 class, American history. What joy. Sighing as I take my seat in the back, wishing this day was already over.

When the teacher walked in, he hadn't walked in alone. Standing beside him was the hottest guy Cara had ever seen, her world stopped moving when she saw him, making her breath literally stop-heart pounding wildly agains't her ribcage, she felt drawn to this new kid and it frightened her. He was at least 6'0 tall, tanned skin , and eyes so green they literally shone when they spotted her in the back. He smiled, showing off straight white teeth. He seemed like the bad boy type.
She started feeling antsy in her skin, almost like she wanted out of her own skin.

"Hello, my name is Julian Dutch..Im, uh, new here" Julian frowned. Well, all the girls moans in the classroom indicated that, while the guys merely studied him. He didn't even have to smile to make them get onto their knees..It made me hate him.
"Yes, I have your name written down, you may take a seat beside Miss. Blood." Mr. White said, Stupid history teacher. Didn't he sense my dislike for this kid?!

Julian slowly started to walk toward me, giving me a piercing look. I gave him the middle finger with a smirk on my face and turned to face the board, Ignoring him until the bell rang.
I just want to get the heck out of here already! sighing, I made my way toward Ember's locker.

"Hey pretty lady" Giggled Ember, causing me to smile. The thing about Ember is, no matter how angry I am, She manages to make me laugh. I'm grateful for it.
"This new kid is seriously pissing me off, there's something about him..I don't know what but Im going to find out what" I growled impatiently.

"Cara calm yourself, I heard he's a hottie." She smiled at me, a knowing look in her eyes..annoying me.

"Ember, I am very calm..and what's with that look in your eyes?" I question with a raised brow.

"Don't worry sweets, you'll find out yourself" She softly sang as she skipped away.

Shaking my head, I quickly make it to second period, and than finally lunch. My stomach growling softly, making me moan. Standing at my locker I look for my lunch.

"Do you ever think of anything BUT your stomach?" A soft voice whispers, making me giggle.

"You know what they say, food is the only way to a wolfs heart, Ash" turning around and smiling at him.

"Haha, very funny Cara." Smirks Ash. Rolling my eyes at him, I turn to walk away but quickly Ash grabs my arm, stopping me.
"Wait, Cara.. I was wondering something .. you know that dance coming up?"

Oh Goddess, please don't be asking me.."Yeah" I smile, while inwardly grimacing.
"What about it?"

"I was wondering ... if you wanted to go with me?" He smiled hopefully.
"Like a date"

Oh boy, I knew it. "Look, You're great Ash, it's just.. Im, uh..." Trying to make up an excuse on the spot

A masculine voice interrupts, "She's going with me" I turn to the source of the voice and almost frown. Oh why does Julian have to be here?

Ash sighs and nods"I see, well talk ton you later Cara" Glaring at Julian as he passes by.

I watch him disappear through the throng of kids, turning to Julian "Look, i don't want you to get the wro-" Julian interrupts me by slowly placing his hand over my mouth, making me hate it but enjoy the warm touch of his hand.

"Shh Cara, you're so beautiful" He whispers close to my ear, making me blush..No one's ever called me beautiful. Hmm, he must want something from me. I push his hand away and growl. "Don't think anything's going to go anywhere buddy, I don't who you think you are..So just stay away" I mutter and push past him and out the door, ignoring the fact it's only lunch time.

Half way home I noticed someone behind me, so I quickly turned around to discover it's just Kaline
"Cara, Ash had told me about what had happened...little cold of you, dont'cha think?" Frowning as she says this.
"This isn't like you at all, the Cara I KNOW would jump for joy if Ash had asked her out"

Sighing, "I know Kaline...it's just this new kid has got me out of whack.." Shaking my head to clear it as I say this.
